REPORTS OF OFFICERS.
City Attorney.
A written report of the City Attorney was presented and read at this time as follows:
August 19, 1941.
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
City of Port Townsend.
Gentlemen:
Concerning the matter of garbage disposal within the city, which subject
as been previously discussed by all members of the city cour:cil, it appears to me that
he only practical solution of the problem requires the City to go into the garbage busi-
ness as a city business, that is to say, by ordinance declare the collection of refuse and
arbage to e a pu c utility and self supporting.
The machinery to set up such a project is quite simple, but some thought should be
irst taken so that a responsible and reliable person be vested with the trust.
Very truly yours,
Il J. Daly,
City Attorney.
